Description Ian Weller 2012-05-22 17:12:11 UTC
Spec URL: http://ianweller.fedorapeople.org/SRPMS/nyancat/1.0-1.20120522git5fe3de9.fc16/nyancat.spec
SRPM URL: http://ianweller.fedorapeople.org/SRPMS/nyancat/1.0-1.20120522git5fe3de9.fc16/nyancat-1.0-1.20120522git5fe3de9.fc16.src.rpm

Description:
This is a simple telnet server / standalone application which renders the
classic Nyan Cat (or "poptart cat") to your terminal.

It makes use of various ANSI escape sequences to render color, or in the case
of a VT220, simply dumps text to the screen.

And now Fedora will be complete :)

Comment 2 Ben Rosser 2012-05-23 14:28:11 UTC
As I need sponsorship (and reviews of my own package request), this can't be a formal review. I did look into a few things though:

I followed the github link and it downloaded "klange-nyancat-stable-2-g5fe3de9.tar.gz"- not something on the format of "klange-nyancat-5fe3de9.tar.gz". So after downloading I had to do "mv klange-nyancat-stable-2-g5fe3de9.tar.gz klange-nyancat-5fe3de9.tar.gz"- you might want to mention this is necessary in the spec? (Or modify the spec to deal with that?)

Other than that, this seems fine.. rpmlint finds a couple of "spelling errors" and the invalid URL in the spec, which are false positives for this package. It does also note the lack of a man page for a binary, but that's it.

nyancat.src: W: spelling-error Summary(en_US) renderer -> tenderer, rendered, render er
nyancat.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US poptart -> pop tart, pop-tart, polestar
nyancat.src: W: invalid-url Source0: klange-nyancat-5fe3de9.tar.gz
nyancat.x86_64: W: spelling-error Summary(en_US) renderer -> tenderer, rendered, render er
nyancat.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US poptart -> pop tart, pop-tart, polestar
nyancat.x86_64: W: no-manual-page-for-binary nyancat

I used wget to download the file, which doesn't actually pay attention to the content disposition headers, so it just names it "tarball". So it's an extra step for someone either way.

Well, wget has an option --content-disposition exactly for this reason.

Comment 5 Rick Elrod 2012-06-28 23:24:40 UTC
[ok] - Package meets naming and packaging guidelines
[ok] - Spec file matches base package name.
[ok] - Spec has consistant macro usage.
[ok] - Meets Packaging Guidelines.
[ok - NCSA] - License
[ok] - License field in spec matches
[ok - see below] - License file included in package
[ok] - Spec in American English
[ok] - Spec is legible.
[ok] - Sources match upstream md5sum:
  [ricky@t520 SPECS]$ md5sum ~/Downloads/klange-nyancat-5fe3de9.tar.gz ../SOURCES/klange-nyancat-5fe3de9.tar.gz
  fef3b947260dcb191e2eed4bcc58b42c  /home/ricky/Downloads/klange-nyancat-5fe3de9.tar.gz
  fef3b947260dcb191e2eed4bcc58b42c  ../SOURCES/klange-nyancat-5fe3de9.tar.gz

[ok] - BuildRequires correct
[ok] - Package has %defattr and permissions on files is good.
[ok] - Package has a correct %clean section.
[ok] - Package has correct buildroot
[ok] - Package is code or permissible content.
[ok] - Packages %doc files don't affect runtime.
[ok] - Package compiles and builds on at least one arch.
[ok] - Package has no duplicate files in %files.
[ok] - Package doesn't own any directories other packages own.
[ok - see below] - No rpmlint output.

SHOULD Items:

[ok] - Should build in mock.
[ok] - Should build on all supported archs
[ok] - Should function as described.
[ok] - Should have dist tag
[ok] - Should package latest version

Issues:

1. Consider asking upstream to include a copy of the license in the repository. (non-blocker)
2. I think the versioning is a bit off, consider:
    Version:        1
    Release:        0.1.%{checkout}%{?dist}
3. There's a manpage now (upstream repo), you probably should include this.

rpmlint output:

[ricky@t520 SPECS]$ rpmlint ../SRPMS/nyancat-1.0-1.20120522git5fe3de9.fc18.src.rpm
nyancat.src: W: spelling-error Summary(en_US) renderer -> tenderer, rendered, render er

Comment 7 Rick Elrod 2013-04-03 03:18:58 UTC
Remaining issues (both non-blockers and are SHOULD items):

- Try and get the DESTDIR patch upstream.
- Ask upstream to include a LICENSE file in the project.

Please try to take care of the above if you can, but for purposes of review, this package is APPROVED.

Ping once again.

Your git branches were created.  How about building the package?  And submitting new-package updates for stable releases...

Comment 12 Tomas Tomecek 2020-01-25 12:03:51 UTC
I am stepping up to maintain nyancat in fedora myself, hence closing this and starting a new review process since the spec here is not available any more.
